12:01 am
you're watching all t.v. broadcasting live from our brand new h.d. studios in moscow. hello and a very warm welcome to the program to egypt where the muslim brotherhood is claiming that egyptians have narrowly voted to be country's controversial new draft constitution the claim is based on the movement's own vote tally but with ballots still being counted it hasn't been officially can fund the draft constitution will showed by the brotherhood but has been slammed by the opposition who say it favors the islamists and for an update when i joined live from cairo by correspondent true well good morning nice to see you so what more can you bring us on these claims by the muslim brotherhood and early indications on the way voting on the way voting has gone. it's here in the capital cairo is
12:02 am
people have been waiting for these key results on the referendum of the constitution in the last few hours we've got the live in the results of course efficient ones will come out of the second round. indicate that it was a yes vote the muslim brotherhood together with media outlets numbers and mounting up there saying approximately fifty six point five percent voted yes forty three point five percent voting no this would seem to be of course a major blow to the opposition forces particularly because in this round only two of the governorates in both to the ten you voted actually voted no to the opposition with numbers as high as seventy percent in support of the opposite. the constitution across the country this particular stage of the referendum was largely seen to be the biggest chance for a no vote the constitution and the governments involved actually voted against the president during the presidential elections so really right now the opposition
12:03 am
forces are going to have to you either drum up support in the next six days for the second round or final time to talk to you to campaign whom do you expect heightened tensions as a result continue to come then. i think there will be heightened tensions of course i mean people have criticized the idea that the referendum respect in two days or the week in the middle with these results coming out because of course people are going to react to them we've already seen bloody scenes in the streets of cairo and those are xandra in the last two weeks with ten diet and dozens injured so these results which are very you know very polarizing results will i think bring people to the streets across the country possibly against the president yesterday in the polling station keyes and as i talk to people votes. tense people less willing to talk about which side they were voting for with fights breaking out
12:04 am
between rival votes is which was pretty seems to parliamentary and presidential elections which are you know when i was speaking to people in the presidential elections people are quite joyful are talking about you democratic expression whereas yesterday it was very somber as both sides realize the importance of the situation so really will have to see you next week what happens in the build up to the second round this crucial round. the seventeen other governorates going to vote on this constitution. kyra based reporter many thanks indeed for that tom de. syrian government forces own they were saving and opposition offensives as the rebels may gains and battles across the country in the push toward stun muskets so it comes out of the opposition received another boost this week when the diplomatic status was great and by a u.s. u.s. led group of nations who also donated more than one hundred million dollars to the un to come meanwhile nato is deploying surface to air missiles and troops to
12:05 am
neighboring turkey unclear requests of the reinforcements from with allies after a series of cross border exchanges of fire but syria alliance officials now claim the syrian government has begun using ballistic missiles against the rebels something denied by damascus. count takes a closer look at who's fighting against assad. oh. they call themselves martyrs. you see around you of the fighters you see are living martyrs and the living martyr has already sacrificed a soul for this country the syrian rebels say they will stop at nothing to defeat us. some of them are so proud of their deeds that they post them on the web including the execution of prisoners. or having a child behead a man who was presumably and i sought supporter atrocities are committed on all fronts during serious. bloody civil war according to many accounts on the ground islamic groups that do most of the fighting on behalf of the rebels dr towie come
12:06 am
meet was a member of a jihad is still can ization twenty five years ago he later became a vocal opponent of radical islam that you have this have no problem to behead people alive you deal with people like bin ladin and there are because of al qaida who have no his e.t.a. shin to use any form of whip around to really. control any place. religious believes an ideology the so-called friends of syria including the gulf states the u.s. the u.k. and friends many morocco to throw their weight behind the newly formed syrian opposition coalition two thirds of the islamic dominated entire south coalition has ties to the muslim brotherhood and cellophane and their idea of freedom for syria what. a positive sign for us that our military struggle is characterized by being mostly islamic because martyrdom for the sake of anna has always been the main motive of people. in what's seen as
12:07 am
a symbolic attempts to distance themselves from terrorists in syria washington has designated one of the rebel groups a terrorist organization but the same syrian opposition that the us supports welcomes the efforts of groups like al nusra the decision of considering one of the factions fighting the regime as a terrorist organization should be reconsidered. this is a demonstration of support for almost in syria people heard chanting we are students of osama. people here in washington don't seem to understand that if you don't like the government in cairo or if you do like the government in cairo i guess i should say then you will love the government the comes to power in damascus because you will see a sunni muslim islamised government a muslim brotherhood style. government there is absolutely intolerant fundamentally hostile to the west washington has failed to officially denounce the many suicide
12:08 am
bombings perpetrated by the rebels in syria preferring to focus on the wrongs committed by the assad regime alone the u.s. is also ramping up the rhetoric about the possibility of the assad government using chemical weapons against civilians something that damascus says would be suicidal on the other hand many rebels are not averse to the idea of suicide in the name of what they call holy war militants have recently taken control of a toxic chemical plant in the country's second city of aleppo a video was uploaded to youtube showing them testing chemical weapons on rabbits we could not independently verify the authenticity of the footage. you will die like these two rabbits in its own words the government is fighting terrorists that battle has claimed thousands of innocent lives the measures the syrian government resorted to have been widely criticised but does that mean the world should keep their eyes shocked at who's actually fighting for power in syria now in washington
12:09 am
i'm going to check on. made mistakes but jeremy sole says the deployment of nato missiles in turkey could pave the way for intervention. this officer the reason for stage three missiles on syria's border is not because of a attack by syria because there's actually no likelihood that syria is going to attack turkey in any case those missiles are to be directed against planes or ballistic missiles not against the artillery shells or mortars that informant the but the turkish border accidentally so the obvious question is why those patriots there and speculation is based on the fact that perhaps there is the first step to declaring a no fly zone and direct measurement intervention sometime next year and one has to ask the question who did the germans who did the british who did the americans who do all the think it's appalling in syria they're not supporting groups who committed to democracy not supporting groups who committed to a political transition not supporting groups that are committed to in any way the
12:10 am
formation of an open transparent state. this way lies in the person and russia's political elite on the edges of their seats in his fast i will address the lawmakers since returning as president he unveiled tough new anti corruption measures and a plan to stem the outflow well from the country but he also called for trying to overhaul of the resource based economy and a boost to the social sector as aussies alexei russia scare reports. several years ago when former president medvedev addressed russia's lawmakers this signalled major constitutional changes for the country with a presidential term being extended to six years this time when president putin delivered his first annual address after returning to the kremlin for the third time it rang no major sensations nor political changes but at the same time this speech was even more significant as some have already said than many others before this time put in barely spoke about any foreign policy issues the main focus
12:11 am
was on domestic problems in russia and there have been plenty according to russia's president. in fact he started his speech by saying it is now or never as the world is going through a crisis russia must stand up to all these challenges and the first and the most correct way to do that is to invest in two youths not richard is the what's the deal as of today the percentage of healthy active able bodied people in russia aged between twenty to forty is one of the highest in the world twenty years' time this economically active population could shrink by fifty percent less we do something this trend will continue but either we provide interesting jobs give opportunities to create business build families raise children be happy in just a few decades russia will become a poor country populated by an elderly generation incapable of preserving its own territory. but the biggest issue dragging russia backwards for the past several
12:12 am
decades has been the corruption among the higher echelons of power and that is why the largest chunk of putin speech was dedicated to their struggle and the president came up with some very tough rhetoric unheard and all twelve years putin has been in politics in russia but no wonder it seemed at times that putin was not interesting on the whole russia and not for the whole world to see but he directed a stern warning to those sitting in front of him in order that we could you know when you can get it but how can people trust an official or a politician who talks a lot about the good of russia at the same time and tries to take his money out of the country i ask you to support the bill to limit the amount of foreign accounts and stocks that officials and politicians can. get the people. don't applaud yet that maybe he won't like everything i have to say but even put in we'll be holding an annual press conference for the world media and the eyes of the
12:13 am
entire planet will again be on the russian president. reporting from inside the kremlin. iran's nuclear program came under the microscope again this week so the ones atomic war still trying to get access. was some western nations suspect nuclear weapons are being made i have no interest a few minutes. later but now the three presidents have received the nobel peace prize on behind the hof i should say and the union as a grand ceremony in oslo brussels was recognized for its efforts in promoting peace and democracy on the continent but even before the prize was handed over the nominations popped mass controversy several former windows wrote to the nobel foundation demanding that the trip will be awarded and on the eve of the presentation hundreds joined a protest march holding a week or so as our safe space one of
12:14 am
a those unknown the only issues undermining the credibility of the. march for little children. will one day live in america a will not be called out about them but barber come to the back are one hundred the one that can be probably wouldn't become the laureate to come. however the nobel peace prize is only awarded to a living person this is when it tastes trying teria especially when it comes to finances the announcement the european union was to pick up the twenty twelve. heated debate you board is being discredited particularly the outrage that you picked it up recently well to be frank inside the united states i don't think very many people pay attention to the nobel peace prize anymore large numbers of americans were stunned when yasser arafat received the nobel peace prize many years
12:15 am
ago president obama was given a prize for reasons that no one understood. the done over the last twelve months to convince the nobel committee. it's with eve such a prestigious awards. supported regime change in foreign countries and several member states indulged in violent crackdowns on demonstrators outraged by the failure of the government's. skeptics. because devalues the whole concept of the nobel peace prize and what's really happening is that the european union is having its worst year ever but its mates in the international community are coming to it's a brit to have been awarded of the announcement to be made in the very week that i went to athens i was greeted not just by tens of thousands of protesters but people dressed up in swastikas and giving it the salutes frankly i grew up with a europe that was divided from east to west but i'm now living in
12:16 am
a europe that is divided from north to south and never at any point in the history of this union has there been more discord of rancor that we currently got among more moderate forces there are concerns the peace prize is being used as a political football i think this award basically does a lot to kind of discredit past people who've won this prize i mean it demonstrates a sort of heavy politicization of the use of this war and now it's been suggested that this year's winner of the peace prize picked it up more for not having done something as opposed to having food the peace around the globe it seems like they got the prize more because there hasn't been any war in europe for many decades rather than having done anything specific i think as long as civic institutions like the nobel prize continue to lose their legitimacy in their spirit through political favoritism and these prizes are always political but such blatant and obvious political favoritism and maneuvering i think it actually takes something
12:17 am
away and i think it's actually damaging that leaves the whole institution of the prize facing the question whether the nobility is being drained from the no down. r t. and as the prize winning european union continues to battle economic and social turmoil increasingly more people in britain while turn out stephen walt spokesperson for the u.k. independence party says his country will be far better than going it alone but there is a certain cobell of politicians and advisors in this country who are petrified that they're no longer going to be at the central table of europe enjoying the late night events and the flash cars and the hotels that they get the decision making the real buzz of being there but there are those like me actually and our party that believe that being outside of this particular club would actually influence great great britain's influence would actually rise and we'd be able to trade more
12:18 am
easily with the rest of the world because we're freed of these regulations at the moment you can see that even from the government's own statistics they show that recently trade with the rest of the world has risen dramatically whilst our trade with europe has actually fallen and that's not surprising to ourselves because we see that the rest of the world recently eastern in asia are looking at south america or indeed the middle east and then there's going to be a great push in africa there are countries with rising populations and rising middle class that demand products we have expertise that could and should be used trading with them. the u.n. nuclear watchdog says it expects to reach an agreement with iran in turn spags the part of china military complex which has come under suspicion of a potential atomic activities the way will meet officials from tehran next twelve to try to finalize a deal and western intelligence agencies believe the area was once he used by iran
12:19 am
to conduct tests of explosives with nuclear elements while powers are seeking to resolve a long running dispute over the country's nuclear ambitions wisht iran says are for peaceful purposes only the country is suffering under severe sanctions as well as other trade restrictions from the you ask canada britain the you. know when to tell all to find out how people that feel about their nation's standoff with the west. three decades of pride followed by three years of mourning when i'm in syria met her future husband a young physicist she immediately knew he'd come a long way indeed he went on to become one of iran's leading nuclear scientists and do it all ended one sunny morning in january two thousand and ten. left to work and then i heard a terrible explosion i rushed to see what happened he was lying like this. i called my screwed must must. must i thought he was just scared
12:20 am
then i turned to him there was no face just blood in tissues he was the first victim in a gruesome trend associated with his work since two thousand and ten at least three other nuclear scientists have been murdered in iran to his name was killed they were working hard so their country didn't need to beg other nations for a no house we have the right acquires this knowledge and feel independent is very nice when men series husbands began embarking on his nuclear career it was not a life threatening occupation in the seventy's west. some countries were rigged to how to run develop its own nuclear program supplying it with technology with no strings attached that changed when the iranian regime deed was earlier seen as inalienable right became its biggest liability emboldened in its pursuit of nuclear weapons billions of dollars have been pumped into the industry before the
12:21 am
revolution at the time of the shah why should they give up now just because western powers say so while iran's nuclear program is now a target of western political discourse there is only suspicion and no internationally recognized evidence that a country's moving towards build an atomic weapon iranian officials believe all this tension is fabricated with the same purpose to demonize them in the eyes of international community if you have knife in your kitchen and some of the recent conti's contour home and said or knife is very dangerous. maybe you want to use it to from some. this is very. george king are you via the perceived fear is that the iranian regime can't be trusted with a nuclear capacity but even those who want to turn to change of leadership say that should be no negotiable for the country i do not really sure as life iranian
12:22 am
national policy or maybe even yes i have come to find out of the struggle between iran. even want something from south device which is preventing. the blast that killed them and serious husband was seduced shown that the clock in the living room stopped at the time of his death both the west and iran are equally failing to move forward and while the west is only dangerous intentions people here in iran believe it's all down to pride and prejudice rife nationality from to her around. on to some of today's news in brief this hour the town about it has claimed responsibility for their time on a pakistani airport in the northwestern city of bashar while the violence has claimed at least four civilian lives and left thirty people injured that time was

launched by five militants armed with rockets and a suicide vest all of them were also killed the city of bashar was located in the edge of pakistan's volatile tribal region under is often targeted by insurgents. the names of these sunday who elementary school shooting victims have been released by authorities in connecticut the gunman identified as twenty year old adam lanza killed twenty eight people including twenty children the youngest age only six a memorial service has been held as floods a tough loss to washington in order of the victims. flying in the face of international condemnation north korea launched a long range rocket on wednesday so pyongyang says eighty three rockets successfully delivered a weather satellite into orbit however those claims were greeted with skepticism by the u.s. south korea and japan who suspected it was a test of long range missile technology north korea's banned from imposing and pushing or exporting nuclear and missile technology under u.n.
12:24 am
security council sanctions and and he will campaign erik's you want as talks are the only solution to the ongoing parts. these are causing us to have more talks not less talks and the north koreans have been willing to attend talks other nations has certainly russia has another nations that have been involved in the six party talks and doubtless threats are just japan south korea the united states are less. willing to engage in talks or in these things happening but what the u.n. said was not only don't use ballistic missile technology it said we must have a commitment to a peaceful diplomatic and political solution to the situation there and that's what is really crying out and i think russia and other countries must finally say now wait of what is the look at the problem but i'm afraid that the united states is going to step back talk less isolate more of the military base that the united
12:25 am
states brought merrily south korea's building on jesuit island in an effort to create a ring around china perhaps and to deal with north korea are all setbacks to peace what's necessary i think at this point in time is not is to step back from the process and the outside countries the other countries around the world must say wait a minute a peaceful china south korea north korea japan as a region will have a huge impact on world east and i think that it's really incumbent that we put pressures towards peace and not toward amping up the conflict anymore. and coming up is out feature on a tourist attraction known as the washroom by sonny that's right out of the show break.
